Demerit System – How The “P” License Can Be Withdrawn

Young or new drivers, that is the “P” drivers unfortunately, are unaware that their P License can rather easily be suspended or “withdrawn”. In fact, the “P” License is a Probationary License for 2 years. Drive carefully and safely or you might end up loosing it.

In this short article, I shall endeavour to explain the best possible manner you can prevent your P License getting Suspended.

This Demerit System involves around APJ Sections 35, 35A, 37 and 38. Drivers under the category of CDL (Competent Drivers’ License) and the “P” category beware!

Under its list, some 18 items of traffic offences are listed. Points ranging from 5 to 15 are given when you are summoned by the J.P.J / Police or the Courts. When Fines are paid, a system of Records is created at the Putrajaya JPJ Headquarters.

As this article solely deals with the problem of “P” License only, thus how it gets being suspended will be addressed.

Finally, remember too your “P” lasts 2 years. After this period, ensure you convert it into CDL (Competent Drivers License) within 1 year period.

The procedure is simple!

Supply:

i) 1 colour photo

ii) Photostat copy MyKad (both sides)

iii) Original P License

iv) RM30 per year. Maximum 10 years.

You can only do the above at any J.P.J office. Contact your driving school instructor / institute should you face any difficulties.

Hope you will be able to prevent your “P” License from being suspended.

By the way, if your P should ever be suspended, you are not allowed to Drive during the suspension period nor are you allowed to apply for any form of License (of any class) from the time your license is suspended.

One good news to you anyway! A person whose P license is suspended will have to resit the “Practical” aspect (slope, side parking, 3 point turn) and the “Road Test” all over again.

However, you can be exempted from resitting the Highway Code test. You have first to apply for permission from the Pengarah J.P.J. in Putrajaya.

If you feel all this is a hassle, just sit for the undang-undang test (Highway Code Test) all over again.

My P licensed will end on 18/12/2009. I ‘m very worried about this. can you give any suggestions, what should i do? Should I still go to the JPJ office to convert my P license to CDL? I already check for JPJ’s blacklist as well as kejara oline, but the system was not updated,mean I do not have any record yet.

I was summoned for running a red light on 11/12/2009 and my P license will expire on 07/01/2010. I read that I have a 30-day period to settle my summons. Problem is I don’t mind paying, I’m just scared that I will lose my Lesen P (10 point deduction right? It’s my first offence) once i settle it. Should I simply convert to CDL ahead of expiry before I pay my summons? Is that possible (cuz I’ve a long time still)?

Im a P license holder and it is expiring on 19/2/2010. I was involved in an accident earlier and a police report has been made. My question is will the police officers revoke my P license if im at fault for the accident?

My daughter’s “P” driving licence is expired on the 29 dec 2009. But she is in United Kingdom to further her study now. can I do the renewal for her to obtain the CDL licence?
I understand that to convert P licence to CDL licence, I have to do it in JPJ and not in post office. What do I need to bring? Do I need to show prove that she is in UK? what kind of prove?

Dear Sir, I’m having trouble to renew my P driving licence. My licence expires 3/02/2010 and I’m coming home on the exact same day. Is it possible to renew it a day late and how long is it to consider an acceptable duration. thanks

my P license will expire on 19/03/2010. I was summoned for running a red light + failed to provide license (that time i forgot to bring my wallet out, all my id is inside) (that time it was yellow light, & i already beyond the stop line, i cant reverse, the car behind is too close with me, and i cant just stop at the middle, it will block other people. so i go on, but police stop me.) and if i paid my summon, i will get 15point!!!!!!!

i cant loose my P license, i need it to drove to college to study. (if JPJ batal my license, i cant drive to study, and it will “jejas my study process!!!!)
i dont want to be like that!!!

can i do “rayuan” so that i can use my license to drive to school to study !? can sir help me with this. (that time i was no choice that i have to go on the red light. I WAS NO CHOICE!!!) PLEASE HELP.

mine got write something. it say’s i have “to appear in person or by counsel before magisttrate court at [ this part i cant read what he’s wrote ] on 3/3/10, time [ cant read what he’s wrote also ] “. I dont konw what the police wrote, [ his writing is very bad, i cant understand what he’s wrote ].

sir (cikgu yap) say i should wait till 2010, then only pay my summon. But what if i dint go to court??? or pay……. will i get black listed??? will police come to arrest me!? 1st time got summon, im worried, so im asking many quwstion, sorry. (mine 1 is PDRM summon).

hi sir..my situation is totallly different..someone hit my car last year and the police say its my fault..there were no casualties or injuries..jz a scratch on his car..we both filed a police report which was the biggest mistake of my life..i was given summon for carelessness..i din pay up my fine n din show up in court..i received a letter sayin a warrent for arrest has been issued..my “P”license ends in 12/6/2010.. what do i do?if i hold it out for another 4 months till i get my C.D.L will anything happen?can i hold out for 4 months?

does d warrant of arrest and summons have a different charge?if i pay up my summons woulndt they record it into the J.P.J system?from what i know if i pay up the summons it will be recorded into the system and my license will be revoked. Is that true?if i don’t pay it means it still hasn’t been recorded into the system. Sorry if i ask too many question. One more thing i would like to ask is about the warrant of arrest. I’m living in J.B, the warrant of arrest does it come from J.B itself or bukit aman?

Dear mr. yap
I have a question regarding to the “P” license.
My careless brother forgot to bring his wallet out and drive to town one night. So unluckily he met up with JPJ road block when he was on his way back home, the JPJ officer had summoned him for “failed to show P license” under Seksyen 58 (2)
My question is, how many demerit points will he get? And he’s now go overseas study, if this coming one more years he didn’t drive and didn’t get any summon, will he still get he CDL license after this?

Your brother has violated Section 58 (2) of R.T.O. 1987. Under Demerit System, your brother will receive 5 demerits points. For a “P” to be banned, one needs to accumulate 10 demerit points within a year!

My friend recently borrowed my car to KL. Unfortunately, I forgot to replace the old road tax with the new one. The new one is at home. He was fined and apparently the officer said his license will be suspended as hes still using P.

I would like to ask what is the demerit for this offense? How long is his license going to be suspended? Is there any way he can appeal as it is not his fault as it is my car? And can I appeal to pay less for the fine as I am a student.

Hi sir,
I would like to ask that my P license due date is on 16 of April 2010…it is possible i convert my P license to CDL license on 16 of April 2010 early on one days renew? or must be on 17 of April 2010 only can renew for it?? i would like to seek for an answer. Thank you.

Cikgu Yap , i had a problem . i got a summon about not have sticker “P” in front and rear of motorsikal and road tax had expired for a period by PDRM . That summon stated a date and time that i need to go to the court , i really need to attend it ? but in that time i will have been staying out of state . And will it be the cause to suspend my “P”?

Having no P stickers front / back is serious offense. Pray that your P license is not withdrawn under the Demerit System. For road tax expiring, you will obviously get another summons. No matter what, ensure you attend the court case.

Hi sir! I got summon yesterday.. i got summon about crossing double line and My `P` license is going to expire on 19/09/10. So, how much i have to pay the summon and how about demerit system.. And will it be the cause to suspend my “P”?

Your summons should probably be around RM150. Overtaking at double line appears to be a minor offense. Even if points are deducted under the demerit system, it should be a problem as to affect cancellation of your P license.

Hello Cikgu Yap..
I got summon last month (18 May 2010) for not putting P stickers..
My P license expire in 2 days time (24 June 2010).. But they wrote in the summon paper i have to pay the compound on 22th of June.. I planned to pay the compound today, as in later… Would they suspend my license? If yes what the best way for me to do? Should i wait until i change to C.D.L first or pay the compound first? Thanks in advance for reading..

I’ve got into an accident yesterday. But, it wasn’t confirmed whether or not it’s my fault yet. The thing is, I’ve got in to an accident beginning of this year which i already paid the compound. Apparently, a letter should be issued to me earlier this year about my “P” license. But, i’ve not received it. And, stupidly i got into another accident yesterday. And, yes we filed a police report. I guess i stand a very high chance in losing my “P” license. Is there anyhow that I can save my “P” license. By the way, I only got my license end of last year which does not make my “p” expiration any closer.

Regard to your accident, it’s surprising the officer failed to inform you if you’re wrong or not. As regards to your last accident, the summons of which you’re already paid up, not all accidents are given demerit points. Do not be unduly worried. Wait for Putrajaya to make the decision later.

i met with an accident a few months after i obtained my P license. after reporting to the police & paying up the summons, there was no news about suspending nor revoking my driving license.

it has been almost a year and a half now, and my P license is about to expire. does it mean that i have to resit the whole exam again once my license ends? but i didn’t receive any news regarding my license after that incident.

Today I tried to renew my road tax and found that it was blocked. After some investigation I discovered I have 2 outstanding summons against my name for speeding dating back to 11/2007 and 1/2008 … but I only got just received my “P” license last month! The speeding offense must have been committed by my wife who has been the family’s driver until now although the actual ownership of the car and insurance has always been in my name (despite my lack of license) with my wife insured as a named driver.

What can I do? If I go and pay the fine then it seems I will lose my “P” license, but if I don’t pay the fine then I can’t tax the family car. My wife has an British / International Driving License.

I guess I need to go to Wangsa Maju JPJ and try to sort this out but I don’t have the first idea how to handle this. Any ideas?

You will have to go to JPJ Wangsa Maju to explain to them your predicament. As you only got your “P” recently, your wife will obviously have to bear your car’s last 2 summons. She”ll have to bear the consequences, not you.

i was involved in an accident last few weeks. i had to make a police report since i wanted to claim the insurance. so heres the details.
my P license started on 18/11/2009 and will expire on 17-11-2011.
i got the summon from PDRM for “kecuaian jalan raya” and i had to pay before 28-11-2010.
so my questions are.
1. will my P license be suspended when i pay for the summon
2. can i renew my road tax next year
3. can you explain a bit about the “1 year=10 merits”. because in my understanding. i now hv 10 merits right? so does it means that on 18-11-2010 i will hv another 10 merits automatically? if it does then that would mean that i will hv 20 merits accumulated by then right?

Not all traffic offenses carry demerit points. Whether demerit points will be awarded to you or not depends of JPJ Putrajaya. When time come to pay your road tax, go ahead and pay it. Who knows, you might be lucky and have no demerit points against you. My advise is, do not be unduly worried.

I am on my P license now & i have two summons – for speeding above 26km (caught last year Aug 2009). i failed to stop at red traffic light (in May this year). my license is due to be expired on 29/10/10 & I am concern that my license will be suspended.

What should I do now? shld i avoid the summons now & renew my P license to CDL first? and later pay the summons? please advise!

A “P” license should not commit the offenses you did. Speeding over 26 km/h will get you 8 points. Not stopping at a Red traffic will get another 10 points. A “P” license who gets more than 10 demerit points within a year will have his license suspended. Unfortunately, in my opinion, you are on you way to losing your hard earned “P” license.

I need some advice now :(
2 days ago i had an accident
in colliding one . and apprantly i was the last guy behind :( the first car infront did an emergency brake suddenly and the rest followed suit , my car being very old couldnt brake intime
nobodi was hurt and the most damage was my car and the guy’s bumper infront of me
Intotal 4 cars was in the accident including me .
at the end of the day , according of how they follow things , i was to be blame of the damage at the police report .

I have no idea how many points i was demerited or whats gonna happen next . I checked the Jpj website and i have no records yet.Is it a high possibility that my license will be taken away ? Please advice else my mum has to fetch me every morning to college then … would be a big hassle for her..

I receive a summon from pdrm for cutting using emergency lane….and im with my p license and going to renew my p license in 1st of September…..will this affect that i can’t change my p license to permanent license??
And how much do I need to pay for and will I get demerits?

i had a accident just now ~ and im still in a P license ~ then just now im driving my moms car back home ~ then when in a junction some 1 bang my car from the back (right door ) then thats was my moms car with out P sticker on it ~ so now will my license be pull back or gantung?

the guy say want go balai to report and now i havent go for the accident case so should i ask other to go report or instead of me ?and my P license ends at 7/7/2011 so what should i do now please reply asap

If you have the other party’s car registration number, you can continue to make a police report against him. With the above police report, you could then make an insurance claim against the party concerned.

My P expired in 2009 but I thought its expiring in 2010….now I’m 1 year and 4 months late to renew it to CDL. What type of problems can occur when I want to renew it? How can I explain them my situation?

I was involved in an accident like some of the others above. I understand that we have to make a police report in 24 hours. As for whether I will be demerit, it depends on the JPJ. rite?

The questions is..
I knocked into a car, but the car owner wasn’t there. The car had a minor damaged, not a serious one. Should I lodge a police report as I have to consider the risk of suspending my P license. I have another year to go. Or do u advice me to wait and see if the car owner lodge the police report?

Dear Cikgu Yap
I am still a ‘P’ driver and unfortuunately had involved in an accident on february.I had made a police report and the police said that my case was a 50:50.However, i still did not received any summon letter.Does that means that my license will not be suspended?However, the third party had file a claim on my insurance.But up till now i still havent received any summon letter.I am very worried that my license will be suspended.Will my license be suspended?or i will received my summon letter a few months later or maybe a year??
Looking forward for cikgu’s reply =)

Little but unusual for police not to issue you a summons if you’re wrong. It’s now near 6 – 7 months after your accident. No action can be taken against you unless you’re fined. My suggestion is don’t be unduly worried. When or if you’ll receive the summons is anybody’s guess. With the police report, the 3rd party can make a claim against your insurance.

Yeah the 3rd party had claim against my insurance already.=( Regarding about getting one’s license suspended..cikgu,is it up to the police,jpj or the court to suspend our license?im still worried about it…and it has been almost a year already.

Yes, you can still make a police report after 24 hours duration. You may or may not be summoned for your action. It depends on the police. Whether P will be affected or otherwise depends on the type of accident you’re involved with.

Hi,
I have a P license that expires the 12/12/2010. I am currently living in Vietnam and I have scheduled a business trip to go back to Malaysia the first week of December. Can I use this business trip to renew the license, let’s say the 1st of December, or it has to be exactly the 12th? If not… do I have to renew it in person or I my friend can go to do it for me?
Thanks,
Ofe.

I got into a bad accident. It was my fault and im going for my court appearance in Nov. I have gotten a summon for this accident and i think my P license will be suspended. The problem is that i dont know if my license really suspended because no one told me. Furthermore, if it does get suspended, what do i do?
PS: My license expires on Jan 2011.

As no one seems injured, you will most probably not be given demerit points. To revoke P license takes a long process. Should you need to make an insurance claim for your car, go ahead, my advice is make the report.

My friend is holding a P license and it’s going due next month.
I would like to ask, can I on behalf of her go change the P to CDL??
If I can do so, where should I go??
And example it due on 21st Dec, can I go change it b4 the date?

I am glad i found your blog, been reading through, very impressive, thank you for sharing and solving most of the problems here.
I am a foreigner here, I have a P license, my purse was stolen two days ago and it had my license in it. It was issued in putra Jaya, I live in Subang-Jaya, considering the distance, can i go to JPJ in Petaling Jaya? I have my police report.
Have a happy new year.
Juliana

dear mr yap.
i have a problem with my P license. last year, i was summoned for not having Pstickers at my car.i noticed that, i am my way to lose my P license.

but then, i consulted my problem with a JPJ officer.he told me to hold on to my summon until i converted my P license to CDL. i already asked him what if i am going to be blacklisted for not pay the summon.he said,” it is okay.just wait until you have converted your P to CDL and after that, pay up ur summon”

just to confirm with the JPJ officer.and for your info, my licence can only be converted on february 2011. and my name is blacklist by JPJ for not paying the summon. do give a feedback

Beating the traffic lights can cause your P to be suspended. It’s up to you whether you wish to settle the outstanding summons or wait for the court summons on 14/4/2011. Alternatively, you could wait till 14/3/2011, change your P to CDL and then settle your summons.

Hi Cikgu Yap,
I received a summon to go to the magistret court at Jalan Duta on the 25th of April 2011 because my road tax has expired for almost 3 months. I’m still on my Probation license and I would want to find out how much demerit will I get?

Hopefully it is not a 10 points demerit because I really need my vehicle to travel to and fro to my college. It’s my first summon letter and well, what are the procedures when I attend the court? Do I need any “special way” to speak to the majistret? (like in terms of greeting or etc)

I have read some of the comments and it seems to me that I’ll most likely get another summon (does that mean a fine or another court meeting?) .

And , is it neccessary to pay on the spot? What is the maximum fine for expired road tax??

Road tax expired falls under purview of Magistrate. Appeal for a lower amount. Be courteous when addressing the judge or magistrate. You should prepare a certain sum of money when appearing in court. Normally, fines are paid on the spot.

Usually, road tax offenses carry a fine of RM300. Actually, it also depends on the judge. Putrajaya will decide how many demerit points you’ll be given.

Hye Cikgu Yap,
I own a car with a “P” on it…
and I have a “P” license too…
now I found out that I have two summons for speeding…
my license will finish in 2012..
but I’ll have to renew my road tax on March 2011
the problem is, I wasn’t driving at the time…
how can I inform this to JPJ?
so I won’t get demerit points?

Firstly, I would like to thank you for the great effort in utilizing a blog in this manner. It is very helpful for us license holders :)

I am a ‘P’ License holder. My concern is that, I have been given a summon for exceeding the speed limit by 40km/h. So by right I should have 10 points demerit now. The thing is, the police guy who stopped me didn’t mentioned anything about the kejara demerit points and if my license is going be suspended. Will i get the kejara demerit points once i settle the summon? Oh and I was stopped by the traffic police and not the JPJ officer (just wondering if it makes any difference)

Comments like yours spurs the blog on! Correct, speeding over 40 km/j will get you 10 demerit points. Once the summons is settled, most likely JPJ Putrajaya will take action. Whether police of JPJ that issued the summons is not important. Action taken will still remains the same.

ok i had an accident. a minor one just a dent. the other guy said ok i pay him its fine. now i need to fix my car. i need to make a police report in order to make an insurance claim. i’m a ‘p’ license holder. can i lie and say i hit a wall or something in the police report. coz i’m afraid that i get suspended if i tell the truth. thanks.

sir…i’m P license holder, I driven the van at 27/2/2011, and i get the summor for didnt have P sticker…i paid the summor in 28/2/2011. My P license expired on 20/10/2011…what should i going to do??and the license were be cancel??

OK i am CDL owner . Last month i was issued a fine for driving on the emergency lane (8 points demerit). How do i gain back the points . Will it reset to 0 demerit points automatically after some years. cause another offense i might end up getting my license suspended. I am still not clear how it works. Kindly advise

As your statement above, does it means if I got a summon which will deduct my demerit points, but I pay it immediately within a certain period, then no point will be awarded?

How quick is quick to settle the summon?
I have a speeding summon on Jan, and i pay it via MYEG as soon it appeared.
Does it mean it wont be updated at all into the system? As I see from MYEG, the date of last update is a year ago.

The rules regarding summons keep changing so often that to be frank, I myself is so confused with it. Since you have paid up your summons, let’s hope no demerit is placed on you. The best thing is try to avoid getting any summons.

hi cikgu yap,
there was an accident recently when a driver was turning right into a road but collided with a motorbike which was moving quite fast from her back. the motorbike was on her right.
the driver still has the “p’ license and has another one year to complete.

She has made the police report. Has to wait for 2 weeks for the siasatan. i was just wondering in this case what will happen to the license? thanks.

A driver who has reached a junction ahead and has given the proper turn signals should ideally not be overtaken by any vehicle coming from behind. It looks as is the motorcycle was approaching very fast and furthermore he shouldn’t have overtaken the car at an approaching junction. What happens to the P of the car driver, will depend on further investigation.

Just wanted to ask, recently I got stopped by JPJ as the roadtax on my car is expired, because my dad and i somehow didn’t realise. And I was having my exams period at that time too, so wasn’t aware. He asked whose car is this and i said it’s my dad’s. The officer just gave me a ticket to appear in court in September to pay the summons and asked for me to rayu to the judge.

But my question is, will I be able to change my P to CDL as mine is expiring on this coming Tuesday? I’m planning to go on Monday.

Try asking JPJ if the summons can be compounded. before September to avoid going to court. If so, you’re advised to settle the summons. You should face no problem changing your P to CDL on Tuesday. This is only my opinion though.

Hi sir
I was driving in a 2 lines road and then suddenly a car came to the middle of the road from side ways and she wanted to make a U-turn so she blocked my way and her car was slanted in the middle of the road and I could go no where so I hit her car from back, so can you tell me whose fault it is ?!
ps: the police first told me it is her fault but as I am a foreigner and I can’t really comminucate with them, the lady started talking with them and made them to ask me use my insurance and I didn’t know if I accept it then my license will get suspended… so I have too many problems now but I have the photos of accident which can definitely be a good document as you can see her car was blocking my way…. so please let me know what I should do in this case
thanx !

If looks as if the lady who came into your path suddenly appears to be at fault. You are advised to go to the nearest police station with your photo evidence to fight out your case. But as a foreigner, I feel you will face a lot of hassle.

I see, I went there and they said the report hasn’t come out yet, so is that correct if I go and check the summon for my license on JPJ and if there is no fine, it means that my license won’t get suspended ?!

My P license is expiring on 31st August 2011. Since it is raya day and whole month is Pausa, can I renew my License in advance (say 1 month ago) or I can only do after raya holiday, the how I can drive without valid license. Please suggest

Hello sir, I somewhat left a dent on someone’s car while driving in the heavy rain 5 months ago. I didn’t manage to brake in time and kissed his rear. I trailed him but he didn’t seem to want to stop and settle the situation. I fled after following him for a while. I, being a scared 18 year old who met his first accident, kept quiet and did not report to the police or my parents. Just now my dad called inquiring whether I bumped someone’s bumper. I’m guessing it’s a police case already. Am I in a big trouble for being ignorant?

As I said many times before, “ignorance is no excuse”. If the person you knocked at the rear knows your vehicle number, he can very well make a police report. You will finally be traced via JPJ records. It is suggested you tell your family the real situation. Explain that you were scared then. I’m sure your family members will understand.

Cikgu Yap just now i had been caught by the traffic camera for running a red light..I’am a “P” Licenced driver and it ends in another 12-13 months. The car isn’t registered under me so when the letter or summons come will it be in the car owners name? Im a little freaked out as it was my first offence and i have never experienced this before..There are “P” stickers on the car and everything so it was just one offence..And from reading through everything you wrote and reading the comments it is 10 demerits that might suspend my licence right? I’m so worried..Will the fine be cheaper if i pay very very early? I still have to wait for the letter or summons to come right? How long usually till it comes?

My friend says if i pay early i can get lower amount..Still waiting for the summons to come haha hopefully the camera didn’t caught me and the summons didnt come! I’m really feeling sorry about my mistake..Now i’m seeing things clearly. Anyways Thank you so so much Cikgu Yap =)

Hi cikgu yap! Two weeks ago my friend drove my car and accidentally scratched on a car. We went one round and came back and the car was gone. We wanted to apologize but the car went off. And now his lawyer sent us a letter and ask us to go to the police station. I’m just a probationary driver. How many points will they deduct? It’s only a minor scratch. Nothing big.

I had my license plate changed to another font and was summon for “Dirty/Vague/Fancy Plate No.” just recently.

The officer told me this in BM “License please. This is P license, it is serious. I am going to issue you a summon for etc etc etc. I will summon you ok.” I just replied to him “OK”. I kind of felt that he was contemplating on duit kopi but as usual I will never ever give them. Then he asked me to settle by or before 16/7 ..should be around that date.

I would like to ask, is it valid even tho by having my IC correctly written but with a wrong number plate? For instance mine is WVF..but he wrote WFF?
Is he giving me a chance or he really wrote wrongly?

If it is valid, what’s the demerit value? This is my first time getting a summon by the PDRM since i got my P..

Hi my sister was involved in an accident yesterday. The driver was trying to make a u turn from the left hand side of the road to the right hand side of the road and continued to make the turn after my sister beeped. Now he is saying we hit him from behind and is demanding that we pay for the damage. My question is how many marks will be deducted for a p license for being involved in an accident? And who do you think is right in this situation? The right hand driver side of the guys car was hit with the left side of the front bumper of my sisters car.

You have done your parking / slope test a total of 4 times. I feel you have not been well prepared for each of the above tests. You should learn until you are well prepared before you go for your tests.

I had summone by traffic last time for illegal u-turn. i did not see the board. I paid y summose 2 month later as while on discount rate. My P expires on May 2012. Can still be able to renew. Can I renew early 3 months before as i will go to overseas for some time.

I have been involved in a car accident yesterday. A motorcycle ran into the right side of by car’s back break light and shattered my windscreen. He’s in the hospital now and I’ve already made a police report.

My question is, will my P license get suspended for this accident? The photos of the damage of my car was clearly visible that the guy banged into the BACK of my car when he was switching lanes. Is it considered my fault (cause he’s a cyclist and im a driver)? and if so, if the police issue me a summon will my P license get revoked or suspended?

Looks as if the motorcyclist appears to be at fault. However, if you should be attempting to make a turn or changing lanes, then it would be a different matter altogether. Then you’ll be considered as having driven in a careless manner. But as you claim, the motorcyclist was switching lanes and knocked into your back, then obviously be would be at fault. In my opinion, the police will therefore not make any summon against you. As such, nothing will happen to your P license then.

Mohon tumpang bertanya cikgu,
My son got his “p” licence about 5 months ago. Yesterday, when he was about to properly park the car infront of the house, he accidently hit a passing car, hitting the left side of the other car. The owner of the other car suggest that we all make a police report for the purpose of claiming insurance. My question is: if my son is summoned the police ( because he hit the otherguy’s car, will my son lost his “p” licence due to the demerit system? In such incident, how many demerit points will my son get?
Thank you.

Your son’s reckless and careless driving, the demerit system, if enforced strictly, recommends a 10 point penalty. The above will automatically cause your son’s P license to be suspended. However, as no one was injured and your son being a 1st time offender, the authorities will likely offer some form of leniency. This is but only my personal contention.

Hi, im a foreigner here, i just recently got my P license. Today i had accident near the school. I wanted to make a u turn and i hit the big school bus which was parked near the road. The bus is scratched a little bit, my car’s right side bumper is a bit damaged. I tried to look for a driver of the bus but he wasn’t there, so i just drove back home not to create the traffic jam in the road. I was driving ac car of my mother in law with P stickers. What would you advise me to do in such situation?

Hi, I’ve passed my grace period of a year from P to CDL license. But I have been using my P license to drive in the UK as I’m a student here. I’ll be returning to Malaysia early June and my P expired in April 2012. Will I be given exception for delay of 2 months extra from grace period to change to full license? I have a clean record on the road as well. Help please

Hi sir!
I was involved with accident today, as I tried to change lane towards a flyover (on the left)suddenly a motorist (from the right side)out of nowhere hit the side of my car and slid on the road. he was injured pretty bad. I made a police report, he’s going to do soon.
according to the police, its a 50:50 fault

I am also a P license holder. The police said that I might have the chance of my license will be taken away. Is it true? I never been summoned or done any fault on the road.

im a p license holder..
around 3 moths ago i met in an accident where i hit the car infornt of me which applied the emergency brake.
i was unable to brake in time,and so i hit the car in front
according to the police officer it was my fault as i was the last person.
i was fined RM 300.and i settled it 2days later

when i asked him about any p license suspension he said he doesn’t know about it..
i haven’t received any letter stating that my p license is suspended

my question is will my p license be suspended ?
and how many demerit points will be deducted?

Recently i attended a wedding dinner and had 2 glasses of wines before i drove off home. I got stopped at a roadblock and my reading shows 0.59 but seeing that I am a P driver, i was detained and asked to attend a court session.
During the hearing, the judge fined me RM1000 and revoked my license.

Your license will be suspended for at least a year. When you are a P driver and got caught with DUI, appeal will not be entertained. JPJ will suspend your driving license. Redo your test all over again.

You can choose to drive without a license, but if you are unlucky, you might get caught again. With your existing license suspension case, your next fine will be heavier.

Big problem is when you get into a serious accident because the insurance company will not cover you due to your license suspension. Most likely legal action will be taken against you to recover the damages.

I hit a motorcycle today, at the T juntion i think, I drive a little bit to the front and i didn’t know there was a bike at the right because he’s riding it a little fast i think. Then he just hit my car at the same time that i go a little bit front. So it was my fault right? I got scared that it was my first time. Its almost 2 years that i never had a car accident, will the police officers revoke my P license??

I was involved in an accident earlier this morning . I was making a turn in a junction with a green light . But unfortunately a car hit me fron the side and damage my front side of the car . So i lodge a police report but theres a bias situation here as the pegawai penyiasat is a friend of the guy who hits me and i want to know ur opinion and what will happen to me and my license and the conpound ?

I just met into an accident in a junction with a car speeding forward. it was my fault for not stopping before the line because i was at a speed where i wasnt able to stop at that instant. It was a minor accident i would say, because no one was hurt and the only damage was that my bumper fell off with some scratches, and the other party’s car’s front light shattered into pieces. The poilce was near by and saw the accident. They came over..asked for my licence and ic..etc. the guy’s car who got hit was rather mad, and he said he is going to lodge a report, however i pleaded him to just settle with my me but obviously i have no idea how to react to this situation because this is my first accident and i am a college student. so i gave my dad’s phone number to him. will this actually cause a suspension in my P licence? Fyi,i just got my P licence 6 months ago. Let say..he file a report within 24 hrs..will my P get suspended? :(

My son got his ‘P” licence for car in July 2014. Yesterday he was summoned for riding a motorcycle without a motorbike licence (and without P sicker on the vehicle. He was fined RM40 and he paid the summon.
I am worried if the summon carries demerit points and affect his CDL later, please advise.
